Scope

The first IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Computing and Networking

Technologies 2009 (WMCNT09) will take place in conjunction with the IEEE

International Conference on Ultra Modern Telecommunications (ICUMT 2009) to
be held

in St. Petersburg, Russia, in October 2009. The workshop will be a day long
event.

This is an excellent opportunity to participate in two events covering a
wide range

of research in mobile computing and ultra modern wireless communications.

Overview

The new social, economic and technological trends having evolved worldwide
such as

the increasing demand for productivity and effectiveness with the pressure
to

respond immediately to customer requirements have created increased need for
access

to information anywhere in the world at anytime. Considering the present

telecommunication environment, which is an amalgamation of a large number of

networks and administrative domains employing various access technologies,
combined

with the increased user mobility makes it difficult to promise the same
grade of

service quality at all parts of the network. The convergence of information

communications technology and computing is creating new demands and
opportunities

for ubiquitous computing via wireless and mobile equipment without
technological

restrictions.

The demanding networking environment of wireless communications imposes
several

challenges in terms of network design, channel estimation, propagation and
radio

resource management offering a variety of high quality multimedia
applications.

Overcoming these issues becomes even more demanding due to non-uniform
spectrum

allocation, various radio resource management policies, economic concerns,
the

scarcity of radio resources, the inherent transmission impairments of
wireless

links, and user mobility.

The first IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Computing and Networking

Technologies 2009 (WMCNT09) serves as an open forum intending to promote
discussion

and bring together researchers, developers and engineers in both academia
and

industry to exchange ideas and to submit novel unpublished works about
architecture,

design, implementation, analysis, measurement, performance and simulation in
mobile

and ubiquitous computing environments. The main purpose is to encourage
research for

ultra modern wireless communication.

Workshop Topics

Authors are solicited to submit complete unpublished papers in the
following, but

not limited to, topic areas:

QoS in wireless/mobile systems

End-to-End QoS

Mobility management in wireless networks

Modeling analysis and simulation

Wireless access techniques

Wireless propagation and channel modelling

Wireless/Mobile network architectures

Digital audio and video on wireless networks

Experimental systems and field trials

Systems interoperability

Radio resource management

Reliable broadcast/Multicast wireless technologies for multimedia
applications

Performance evaluation of new wireless standards for high-quality
entertainment environments

Proceedings

The authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original,
previously

unpublished, complete research, not currently under review by another
conference or

journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and development in all areas
of

computer networking and data communications. All papers will be reviewed and

accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, included in
IEEE

Xplore (approved). Papers must be submitted electronically in the EDAS. The
maximum

size of papers should be 5000 words including tables and figures. The cover
page

must contain an abstract of about 150 words, 3-5 keywords, name and
affiliation of

author(s) as well as the corresponding author's e-mail and postal address.
Authors

of selected outstanding papers will be invited to submit extended versions
of their

papers for consideration of publication in a special issue.
